Dragon Sword and Hotwheels Red & Blue Toy Reviews

In an effort to bring Henshin Grid into a new direction and have video toy reviews, I planned to get the perspective of a young Power Ranger fan. My plan as to review some new toys from the perspective of my 3-year-old grand nephew Jaiden (he wasn't named after Jayden the Red Ranger). Anyone that has a 3-year-old know it is hard to get anything out of them. Jaiden turned out not liking being photographed or even on video. He got shy. For Christmas, I got him the Samurai Red Sword Cycle, plush 16" Green Samurai Ranger Battler, Mega Mode Green Samurai Ranger Mask, Hotwheels Power Rangers Megaforce Red and Blue, and Megaforce Dragon Sword and Phoenix Shot. His mom gave him the Red Ranger Sword slahing Action Morph figure. I only reviewed Dragon Sword Phoenix Shot Battle Set and the Hotwheels cars of Power Rangers.

EXCLUSIVE Power Force pic of the Megaforce Teens in High School!!!

As a 'Holiday gift' to Power Force members, we got an exclusive never-before-seen photo of the Megaforce Ranger teens in High School. I remember reading a comment from a fan on a board wondering if Saban was going to have a promotional photo of the cast in High school like in MMPR. This picture looks clear and awesome, not like the filtered Instagram picture of the headquarters. I like how the Pink Ranger has short pink shorts like Kim. Also Noah, the Blue Ranger does look a stereotypical preppy nerd, everyone else doesn't look 'stereotypical.' Gia/Yellow's outfit looks more like Kira from Dino Thunder. Anyway, kudos to the Saban Brands team to really mirror the first season. And unlike the first season, Jake has products like the jacket and Adidas shoes (or what looks like) because in most seasons the gang wore generic cheap clothing.

Fellow Power Force member Mr. Yellow did this comparison pic:

Lauren/Female Red Samurai Ranger in Media

UPDATED 7/26/13

I covered the female Red Ranger's Japanese Counterpart Hime Shinken Red and her merchandise before. (http://henshingrid.blogspot.com/2010/09/female-shinken-red-in-merchandise.html) Now I am covering where Lauren has appeared in Power Rangers media or merchandise. Since she comes in late in the game, it is hard to have her in any merchandise. Though Saban has been able to sneak her in. Nick.com had video of Lauren leading the team.

For the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade 2012, Lauren appeared with the other 19 Red Rangers to complete the 20 Red Rangers!

In February, Lauren joined the other Red Rangers on a bus in New York doing a tour around the city for a Twitter contest.

In the Nick.com game Power Rangers Samurai: Super Samurai, it has been upgraded with Lauren and Shogun mode.

Lauren has her special spinning attack like in the show but sometimes there are glitches.

When you win her over with Super Mode, only Jayden appears in the big picture sequence with the villain. Also, when she morphs we see Jayden's hand and his ranger form before the game starts. Even in super mode, sometimes it glitches and shows Jayden's regular Samurai mode instead of Super.

Lauren in Shogun Mode above. She holds her Fire Smasher forward.

Jayden in Shogun Mode above. He holds his Fire Smasher on his back.

Shogun close-up for both.

And the elusive '7th Mystery Ranger' which showed up in the UK and still hasn't appeared in the US stores. Some were hoping she would turn up in the Megabloks line but unfortunately the way they designed the female figures, they have no skirts so there is no way to show off the female Red Ranger and also their chests are all the same.

Also in the Super Samurai X-Box Game, Lauren is mentioned in the credits, she might be an unlockable character. No pictures have been seen yet of this.

Lauren has two cards in the Guardians of Justice series (2) of the Power Rangers ACG.

She has one card in Hope of the Universe (Series 3).

Volume 4 of Power Rangers Super Samurai was released June 11th. She is on the cover and back of the DVD and in the menu and DVD disc but Pink Ranger has been omitted.

She has replaced the White Ranger on the cover of Trivial Pursuit and Monopoly.

Apparently her Figuart was sold at the NYCC 2012.

Yay! Series 3 of Power Rangers Samurai MegaBloks spotted!

I thought it was canceled but it seems we get a Christmas present in that the Series 3 of Power Rangers Super Samurai from Mega Bloks have been released! These have been spotted by Infinitevirtue of Rangerboard. I am surprised they used Gold Ranger for background and not Green, Green Ranger gets shafted again! Apparently these were found in Canada, hopefully they turn up on eBay or the USA in like Ross or something.
